""However, if anything, the conflict is more of a "Muslim-Jewish" one than an "Arab-Israeli" one.""

If you change that premise to Muslim-Zionist, it might be more descriptive of what is, rather than what you would have us believe.

""why would Persian Iran -- conquered by the Arabs -- have such a deep hatred for Jews and Israel, whereas a non-Muslim country such as India does not feel such enmity? The answer is painfully clear: The contempt in which the Qur'an and other Islamic writings hold Jews does not exist in the scriptures of the Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, and other Eastern religions.""

The answer to that is very simple. Israel's Zionist government is not a direct threat to the existence of India, since it is not conducting the same planned campaign to gradually annexe India, that it is conducting in Palestine and the Middle East.

Zion's ingrained certainty of entitlement to the so-called promised land, occupied for so many centuries by Palestinians, and their high handed and disdainful treatment of the inhabitants, not only of that, but of all the other countries in the region, was always going to cause hatred.

Israel is the biggest single mistake that the West ever made. A Palestine with Jewish people living in mutual respect as they did 2000 years before might well have eventually settled into peace. Once the Zionists were given a part of Palestine, they were bound to want more, in fact they want it aall, and they don't much care who they kill to get it.

That whole garbled article is a straightforward apologia for Israeli expansionism, and it is a misrepresentation of what the Muslims of the region object to.

I'd like to know more about the credentials (if any) of the author.
